...made organized opposition to Garcia Meza over the past year virtually impossible. Siles Zuazo has established a government-in-exile based in Lima, Peru which, combined with clandestine political work within the country, may eventually pose a forceful challenge to the military regime. In the meantime, political stability will depend on other factors. The regime has survived economically so far because of the repeated lenience of the international financial community. At the time of the coup, Bolivia's foreign debt was $1.9 billion, $170 million of which came due in December. Within 10 days a consortium of banks...

They are unable, for instance, to assess how aggressive the Salvadoran soldiers are on combat patrols or in firefights with the guerrillas...
Today, on the offensive side, the Crimson needs the usual strong game out of leading scorers Francesca Den Hartog, Maureen Finn, and Cat Ferrante. The offense will depend on the same cutting rotation passing attack that hammered UNH with 35 shots. If things get tight, though, look for Den Hartog as the "Fran Without Ollie Show," which is always at its best during prime time...
